You think the next version of this will be with a toyota trans and transfer using the bellhousing adapter?

I don't know. It's a little late for it now as the t-case mounts are part of the body of the car now. That and ive grown rather fond of the sammie divorced t-case, with it's high range reduction and small size and weight.

haha it worked better than i thought it would !!was your trany beat in that turbo because of to much drifting fun ?? or just some stub shafts for easy rolling?....keep up the good work:popcorn:

Yes very motivational, and yes easy rolling Stubs. Lol.

Well it is late and a picture speaks a thousand words, so here are a few more crappy pictures. So obviously not finished yet, but a heck of alot closer now, and you can get an idea of where it'd headed. Ok, not quite level yet. I still need to make the new front struts and control arms to use the SVX spindals and then do some body clearing for the 35,s.

As you can see this one is desiged to be bolted in for easy removal in the event that the transmission needs to come out. Ive had this fresh in my mind since I do still have to remove the tranny to find out why it's makeing horrible noises.

Here it is bolted in place. It also serves double duty as support for the lower control arm drop mounts.

Tried to get a pic if how low the t-case hangs from a level side veiw but the dark does not provide good pictures. It's hard to see but that's the best I could do at the moment.

I finished getting the new floor welded in tonight. I had to raise the pass seat about an inch to give the t-case enough room. You can see the blocks I had to weld in to securely raise it and I had to modify the rear mounting point on the inside rail. A veiw from the drivers side. Here it is all welded up. I build a frame around it with some angle iron and welded some heavier metal strips across the top for the e-brake to bolt to. You cam also see in a few pics of where the t-case shifter will be now. A much better position that where I had it in the wagon.

So this weekend I plan to get it and the floor all treated with POR-15 and lay down some new sound deadening material, them I can get the interior back together.
